Best iPhone Deals in Canada: Lowest price for iPhone 16

The iPhone 16 is now available for pre-order, and we've found the best way to score Apple's latest device is through Rogers' Infinite Extra Plan, which offers a $16.38/month credit for pre-orders.

Now is also the best time to grab older iPhones since carriers reduce prices on older models, including the iPhone 15. We love deals on the iPhone 15 for $25/month, the iPhone 14 for $20/month, and the iPhone SE (2022) for a cheap price.

We've been writing about the iPhone since its creation and know how to spot great deals like that, including ways to score a cheap iPhone or bring your unlocked iPhone to a reliable carrier. Keep reading to find the best iPhone deals in Canada.

Best iPhone
16 Deal

After months of rumours, Apple's newest handset has finally arrived. You can pre-order the iPhone 16 starting on September 13; the device will be available in stores on September 20. 

Rogers | Infinite Extra | $32/month

• Pros: Improved photography features, longer lasting battery, AI-assisted (Apple Intelligence) features
• Cons: Expensive upfront cost, cheaper iPhones available

After months of speculation, the iPhone 16 series has arrived, bringing upgrades on photography (including a nifty, professional-grade Camera Control button), a battery that can support up to four hours of video, and Apple's venture into AI, Apple Intelligence. 

This Rogers deal is the best iPhone 16 pre-order deal currently available in Canada. You'll pay $32/month for the phone when you finance it through Rogers' Infinite Extra plan, which offers 175GB of full-speed 5G data per month. The new iPhone isn't a necessary upgrade, especially with so many deals on older models, but if you're looking to grab the latest from Apple, this Rogers deal is your best bet.

Best iPhone
15 Deal

Freedom Mobile | 5G Unlimited 100GB CA-US | $25/month

• Pros: Newest iPhone for a low monthly price, excellent camera system
• Cons: $45 upfront cost

While we eagerly await the release of the iPhone 16, we're also keeping an eye on the prices of the iPhone 15, which have started to fall. The iPhone 15 has plenty to admire, including a fast processor in the A16 Bionic chip, an all-day battery, an advanced camera system, and plenty of other new features, including improved FaceTime and customizable Contact Posters. It's an ideal device for a budding photographer or someone who loves gaming on the go.

This Freedom Mobile deal is the best option for grabbing the new iPhone 15. The phone runs you $25/month, but the accompanying plan ($60/month) is a steal, too, offering 100GB of full-speed 5G data on the expanding Freedom network.

Best iPhone
14 Deal

Freedom Mobile | 4G LTE Unlimited 20GB CA-US | $20/month

• Pros: Excellent 5G coverage, long-lasting battery
• Cons: High monthly payment

Although it's no longer the new phone on the block, the iPhone 14 is still a strong smartphone. We were impressed by the device in our review, and with good reason: the iPhone 14 builds on the strengths of the iPhone 13 and includes an improved camera and an even better battery.

Freedom Mobile is currently offering the phone for $20/month through their 4G LTE Unlimited 25GB CA-US plan. The plan and phone together cost $70/month.

Best CHEAP
iPhone Deal

It's rare to find a free iPhone. They only appear every so often. Right now, there aren't any carriers offering them, so we found the cheapest iPhone available instead.

Fizz | iPhone SE (2022) | $579 outright

• Pros: Cheap iPhone, nationwide network
• Cons: No 5G

The 2022 SE is considered a mid-range iPhone, one that has less storage and functionality compared with its flagship cousins like the iPhone 14 and 15. But the SE is still a strong device, despite its tiny size. It's got a 4.7" display, front and rear cameras, and an A15 Bionic chip processor. We especially like it because it's one of the cheaper iPhones on the market.

We know that the pricetage listed here may not seem cheap, but consider an important distinction: this is outright rather than monthly. That means you'll pay $579 at purchase but then the phone will be yours. You won't pay month-to-month and you won't return the phone after two years.

Unlocked iPhone Deals

Here's a secret most carriers won't advertise: the best way to save money is to snag an unlocked iPhone and bring it to BYOD plan. All iPhones sold in Canada since 2017 are unlocked, but if you've grabbed an older model then unlocking it is a rather easy process.

You can also purchase unlocked iPhones from Apple or from third-party retailers like Amazon, which has plenty of older models like the iPhone 13, iPhone 12 Pro Max, iPhone XR, iPhone 11, and more.

As for BYOD plans, we recommend Public Mobile's Unlimited Canada-US Talk + Text plan, which offers coverage on Telus' vast 5G network along with unlimited talk and text. The monthly data allotment is more than enough data for your unlocked iPhone, allowing it to stream, game, and navigate up to its full potential.

Methodology: How WhistleOut rates cell phone deals

WhistleOut evaluates phone plans based on the following criteria:

• Price & value: Not all cheap phones are “bad,” and not all expensive devices are worth it. We look at everything a cell phone plan includes and compare it to other plans from the same carrier, as well as similar plans from competitors in the market, to determine whether the value is consistent with the price.
• High-speed data: Also called “premium” data, this is how much data you get at full 4G/5G speeds before they can or will slow down. The more guaranteed high-speed data the plan includes, the better experience you’ll generally have—but there’s also usually a limit to how much you actually need, and we ensure that you’re not overpaying for data that will go unused.
• Coverage & network reliability: The breadth of each carrier’s 4G LTE and 5G networks determines your reception and service. Particularly in 5G, some carriers offer far more robust coverage than others, which affects how their phone plans perform in different parts of the country.
• Plan extras and perks: In addition to the basics—talk, text, and data—some plans throw in freebies like hotspot allowances, cloud storage, entertainment subscriptions, or service discounts.

Our mobile experts leveraged proprietary data and real-world customer feedback to determine the best iPhone deals in Canada. We considered plan-specific elements, including perks, premium data allowances, and mobile hotspot allocations. After performing hands-on testing and extensive research, including customer feedback, we picked the deals we feel meet the needs of most people.
